Stormblood Benchmark Scores.

[MirielleLavandre]

Sorry for the tangent, but does anyone know how I can run the benchmark at 2560x1080 and have it take up the entire screen? I always get the black bars on both sides no matter how I try (full screen, borderless, and windowed). I want to get an accurate score of what it is when it takes up the full resolution. Thanks!

...the benchmark at 2560x1080 ... always get the black bars on both sides ...

That means your screen have a different native resolution. You can use the 2560x1080 as is if you want benchmark that resolution, or else you have to take note the native resolution your screen have, and set that in your video settings.

This should be doable here:

Thanks Mi and Lilli -- my monitor is actually an ultra wide set to 2560x1080 native resolution. When I run the benchmark, using that resolution, no matter in Full Screen/Windowed/Borderless, it always has the black bars. I was just hoping to run it utilizing the entire screen but I don't think it is possible since the benchmark seems to be made for 16:9 only. ^_^v

Hm. I've seen some screenshots in this thread with UWD screens. So it seems to be possible. Maybe you ask one of them.

Fullscreen 1920x1080:




Borderless Windowed (auto chose 1536X864):




Quality wise: Borderless windowed looked the same as 1080p.

Didn't expect the differrence of a GTX 1050 Ti compared to a stock GTX 1060 to be so huge.

1050TI is slightly better tahn GTX960, GTX 1060 which is very close to GTX 980, it's almost 2 tier different in Maxwell generation.

Me being the technical idjit wishes assistance in choosing a pc for stormblood. I wish to play the game at modified, but mostly max, settings but i have no idea what to buy.

These items are quite pricy and i wish to hear if they are worth the effort. My current pc gets me a benchmark score of around 6k on medium settings.

It would help if you gave us first the spec's to your current PC and second the budget that you have or are willing to spend.
